Agadez, the Music and the Rebellion plot

"For the Tuareg, the desert is freedom. Music is power."

The Tuaregs belong in the Agedez region of Niger. A conflict with the government has caused many nomads to move to West Africa. The fight for the rights of the Tuaregs is not violent at the moment, and music plays a decisive role in this. We get to know the famous musician Bombino who, through patriotic songs and breakneck guitar solos, manages to unite and mobilize both young and old.
